Backend building blocks for applications, including authentication, databases, storage, functions and project-level management.
Pricing model: Free tier plus monthly compute/database subscription and usage quotas; enterprise is quote-led. Free projects are limited to two and can be paused after one week of inactivity; database compute starts at $10/month per database, with higher dedicated tiers from $10/month upward.
License and deployment: The inspected pricing page documents Appwrite Cloud; it does not state a license or self-hosting terms on the page inspected.
A useful evaluation
Useful for product teams wanting a single backend platform rather than assembling auth, storage and serverless primitives.
Check included usage, deployment requirements, and what moves to a higher or custom tier before comparing cost.
Put it to work
- Write the job and smallest successful outcome this tool should support.
- Compare one realistic workload or workflow against the published plan and deployment conditions.
- Record likely growth costs and validate the fit with the people who will operate the tool.
Limits and tradeoffs
Free projects can pause, and production workloads move into per-database compute and quota management.
